Cucumber-mint



I just started going to a new yoga class about a month ago, and I love it. The place has a mixture of healing and creative arts. There are art shows, story telling, yoga classes, and nutritional workshops. I really love how small and unintimidating the classes are. Last class Marisol, the instructor, gave us (there were two of us, SMALL I said!) a glass of cucumber-lemon water. How nice is that; sipping on cucumber-lemon water, doing yoga: a dream. So I went home and made some of my own! I used a cucumber from our friend Jen's garden, and I didn't have any lemon, so I used some peppermint from our garden. Amazing!

also delicious with lime and mint. I had a friend in college that used to ask for a bowl of cucumbers to add to his ice water in a restaurant, like many people ask for lemon. He always got strange looks, but that water was delicious!

What! Lucky! I wish my yoga instructor gave me cucumber-lemon water!
